View from my balcony in Fort Lauderdale last week.

LOTS of good info on that here...
-
I put a set of Continental DWS's on the TH when the stock Pirelli Scorpion run-flats were toast. We put them on a lot of Audi's at work and have had good luck all around with them. Might be worth a look.

Correct. Pollard (in the mouth) is (was) actually the name of the dealership.

Someone please do this with a Comanche! Ok not really... 🤣🤣🤣

Is it just me, or does it look like it's been "repaired" in the middle? Definitely doesn't look $499.95 nice. (or right)

Got mine this afternoon. Awesome!!! Thanks Pete!

I have reached out to him on FB. Excellent response and customer service as stated. Highly recommend him and his products. Trying changing color now. I forgot it even did that! It must be an RGB LED not an incandescent bulb. I've got it on white now, (was green to match everything else) we'll see what happens! Thanks all for the responses!

I've searched around a bit to no avail. Does anyone know if there is a replaceable bulb in the R.E.M.? Mine has started to intermittently have no backlight to the gauges. I can still (barely) see the readouts, but the actual backlight comes and goes...

Just realized I have not posted this one here yet! 1988 Jeep Comanche Pioneer - AKA "PB&J" 4.0l / AW4 / NP231 / D30 / D35 (for now - in the process of putting together disc brakes on an MJ D44) / LWB Current Location: Fort Collins, Colorado Status: In the rotation as a daily/bad weather snow beater (We don't use salt around here...) Notes: Has front and fuel tank skids, Honey/Tan interior, cloth/vinyl bench, vinyl pocketed door cards with hockey stick arm rests. 3 pane rear slider window. Leather wrapped 3 spoke wheel on a tilt column. Column shift, cruise, intermittent wipers, dealer installed A/C, AM/FM cassette - Everything works. Original paint from the decals up, re-sprayed at some point from the decals down in the factory "Coffee". Seems like a semi rare color. Including this one, I've only ever seen 3 in person. I believe JeepDriver's was also originally this color. Bought in May 2016 with 83k original miles. Now has a bit over 86K. Added ~5" bastard lift on short arms front, General Spring custom Metric Ton lift spring pack in rear. 31x10.50R15 Yokohama Geolanders on black steel "D" window wheels. 97+ mirrors, T-case skid, Krusty hitch, 21 slot grille, Nick-in-times R.E.M., tinted windows, Meanlemons bored throttle body and battery cables, and a sweet home made poop pipe overflow bottle which takes a regular radiator cap that I rescued from a junkyard MJ. Surely other things I'm forgetting. When I first bought this truck, I had intended on it being a 3-6 month flip. Didn't care for the color or the LWB. It's since really grown on me and it has just ended up being too good to let go of! Current owner: Me

$$$ Sent!

Realistic: Get something like this, pry it back straight, and unscrew it like normal. Unrealistic: Tack weld a link of chain to the head, and use a tow strap through the passenger window connected to another Comanche to yank that sucker out loose tooth style. Epic: Leave it, paint that bad boy gold, and clearance the a-pillar trim so that it can be seen and enjoyed for years to come. It is ComancheClub famous at this point after all!

For a DIY/driveway type, I've been pretty happy with Mothers CMX. Can usually be had at the auto parts stores. Not as thick, and doesn't last as long as the "real" stuff, but it's WAY cheaper and easier to apply. The bottle says you can "layer" it for more/longer lasting protection. I just slap a new coat on every 3 months or so, and the water still beads off nicely, even before the new coat. Has been a godsend for cleaning the brake dust off the Brembos on the TH...

factory longbed rollbar in OK
mjben replied to Pete M's topic in Craigslist/eBay... i.e. Not Your Stuff
Damn. I want it. Anyone in Oklahoma want to grab it for me and hold it for a bit/possibly ship? -
parts and deals on Market place

I agree. The bars look narrow... But if it is, it must come with the gasket too otherwise you'd see the exposed glass edge in the pics. -
I drive to northern WI every year for Christmas, so in my case, I'd just pick it up. I'd think shipping an assembled bar would be a bit pricy. Of course I'd LOVE to have one assembled, AND including mounting plates/hardware for the $500, but... A DIY kit sounds like a better option in the long run.

I'd be willing to spend ~$500 on a LWB one...
